Lagos State indigenes, under the aegis of De Renaissance Patriots Foundation, on Monday expressed shock over the reinstatement of the sacked Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, describing the act by which Obasa was reinstated by the 40-member parliament as a show of monumental shame.

The socio-cultural organization of Lagos State indigenes said this in a statement by its media office, copy of which was made available to newsmen, pointing that what happened in the State Assembly was a big donation from the “Renewed Hope.”

The group of indigenes, while further describing the situation as an embarrassing and disgraceful behaviour, said the development was an indication that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu “and House members lost the best opportunity to assert the powers and their authorities to free themselves from shackles.

“This is the view of De Renaissance Patriots Foundation on the activities that took place in the Lagos State House of Assembly today.
